Larson Performance Horses - Kip Larson and Michael Davis

Welcome to Larson Performance Horses, owned and operated by Kip and Christine Larson.

Since 1991, Kip Larson has been skillfully training horses and preparing clients to successfully compete in all-around events. With countless World Titles to the Larson Performance Horses name, including the eight World Championships, seven Reserve World Championships, and two World Champion All-Around Titles earned in 2014 alone, it’s clear to see that Kip Larson and his team have developed an incredibly effective program in the Pacific Northwest.

“It takes three individuals to make a champion: the rider, the horse, and the trainer. I’m all about teamwork, patience, dedication, and hard work on the part of everyone on the team, including the horse.” — Kip Larson

Kip’s clients value the outstanding care he offers their horses and appreciate his keen eye for detail both in and out of the show pen. He takes great pride in knowing that many of his riders have been under his guidance for numerous years and is always open to helping new clients reach their goals.

“My clients are like an extended family. We train together, travel together, and show together. When they succeed, it’s really gratifying.”— Kip Larson
